This egret was fishing in the same place I took the long exposure of Manhattan with the marina in the foreground.
These two pics show the bokeh a little better, but I'll post more soon.
I was sitting in a park with my friend Lia. She's a print journalist but still with an interest in photography, so I knew she would get a kick out of the 400mm. No sooner did I hand her the camera that she started pointing it at people in the park. This is her first pic, believe it or not. I bumped up the ISO so she would get a fast shutter speed at f/5.6 (
1/6000 sec 1/1600 I mean, oops), than used Noiseware to clean it up.
And this was mine, trying to save face... but hers is still better. In the original, *every single word* on the front page is clearly legible!
